Roman's Ditsy Floral Print Shirred Midi Dress, priced at £40, is available for £30 for new shoppers using the code AFRPLC25Q226, which takes 25% off. Returning customers can use the code LOOK to get it for £36.
A Versatile Transition Piece
The navy ditsy floral print, long sleeves, collar and midi-length silhouette make it a natural choice for the transition from warmer summer days to cooler weather. Made from a comfortable stretch jersey fabric with a shirred waist, the dress combines an easy-to-wear shape with a darker colour palette that gives the floral print a more seasonal feel.
Available in sizes 10 to 20, the shirred waist adds shape to the relaxed fit, designed with comfort in mind as well as style. For people looking to make existing summer pieces work for longer, a transitional dress can be particularly useful as temperatures begin to drop.
Shopper Reviews Highlight Comfort and Fit
One happy customer wrote: "Love it, so comfortable, stretchy for after a big dinner! Had a few compliments." Another shopper highlighted the material doesn't crease easily, sharing: "Lovely fit. So comfortable and easy to wear. Doesn't crush and easy to roll and pack."
Someone else said they 'love the colour for autumn' and another shared: "This dress is fabulous. A perfect fit, I bought size 12. Lovely material, won't crease. Just the right length, I'm 5'2". I'm about to buy the other colour. Love it." A further customer commented: "Delighted with the dress. It's a nice fabric and has a very flattering shape. Such a good price too!"
Styling and Alternative Options
The Roman style can be paired with ankle boots and a denim jacket for early autumn, while a chunky cardigan can be added when it becomes cooler.
For those exploring alternative high-street options, New Look provides the Light Yellow Button Through Tea Midi Dress priced at £34.99 across sizes eight through 22. This piece presents a similarly breezy midi shape, complete with a subtle polka dot pattern and a sweet decorative bow positioned at the center.
Meanwhile, shoppers visiting Debenhams can find the Dorothy Perkins Petite Bubble Sleeve Trim Detail Midi Dress in a rich chocolate shade, marked down from £39 to £35.10 in sizes 4 to 18. While crafted with special occasions in mind, its versatile cut means it can effortlessly be dressed down for workplace settings or informal social gatherings as required.
Speaking on the Roman dress, someone gave a mixed review, declaring: "Lovely material. Looks and feels amazing. Wish it had pockets." But, a final consumer explained: "A lovely dress that can be dressed up or casual. Lovely fit. Usually a 16-18 and the 16 fit perfectly. Lovely material and looking forward to wearing it and getting a lot of wear out it."
